SOMETIMES IT TAKES SOME TIME :: Kenan Thompson THIS IS NOT A PODCAST with Bobby Hundreds

- Society & Culture
What can you say about Kenan Thompson that hasn't been said? He's a consummate professional, a legend in the game, and one of the most versatile talents modern culture has ever seen. A rare breed, he's part of a miniscule group of massive child stars that has been able to transcend their early fame and find even bigger success as an adult. The husband, father, comedian, and actor is now the longest tenured cast member in Saturday Night Live history, a feat that is both astonishing and totally believable. He's just so so good at transforming into whatever role he is playing, and he's been doing it since the 90's when he was the star of Nickelodeon's All That sketch comedy show. The spin-off Kenan & Kel and subsequent Good Burger movie catapulted Kenan into superstardom and made him every kid's favorite. But while he found early success, his road to conquering the adult comedy world as well wasn't always easy. It's been a bumpy road at times, and Bobby invited Kenan to The Hundreds HQ to discuss it all. "Awwww, here it goes!"
